Which Staff Protocols (//showthrea...-and-Protocols) were broken 2. Investigate the situation
a. Contact anyone involved and get their side of the story. Also, check logs. It may not be immediately visible WHO caused the situation, and you may need to talk to several people to figure it out. Try to do this as quickly and efficiently.
3. Determine the seriousness of the issue
a. This is very important because the seriousness should match the punishment. For example: using light netspeak (emoji's and such) is not a bannable offense for first time offenders; however, killing a marine for an insufficient reasons is.
Description of the incident After a messy OP due to obsessive arrests by MPs over minor things xenos hijacked the alamo.
2 marines still held by MPs were being transported from brig to evac pods by 2 MPs in the direction the DS crashed.
Considering the whole ordeal and seeing that my comrades were being forcibly evaced and heading into the direction of xenos I tried to break them free by grabbing them from MPs. After the first try I was flashed and told if I interfere again I’ll be shot. Considering it’s hijack and my character is in fight or flight mindset I again try grabbing them from the hands of MPs and try to move back.
One of the MPs named Lysander Raede (the one that previously warned me) pulled out his gun (can’t remember if it was a pistol or a revolver) and starts firing at me. Thankfully [or so I thought] none of the shots hit me as I was strafing around I quickly wielded my gun and shot him down in self-defense.
The second MP watched all this and did nothing so I proceeded to free my comrades and went back to brig with them to get their stuff. Second MP simply followed us and we had no issue.
During the whole round I expressed my views on the actions of MPs but I was never hostile. I didn’t resist my arrest, I didn’t disarm spam nor push MPs. Only time I tried freeing my friends was during hijack as I saw them clearly being in danger. Only person I shot was the MP that clearly in my eyes tried to kill me.

blue circle – place where I grabbed the prisoners to free them
Red circle – position of the MP
Green circle – my position
Pink circle – I believe the wall has bullet holes from the MPs gun not sure tho couple of shots went west of me as well What resolution are you seeking? Lunarflu considered those shots fired by the MP as multiple “warning shots” in my direction and he ruled my self-defense as LRP.
I simply disagree that just because a player missed multiple shots on someone it means he’s firing “warning shots” and that defending yourself from a threat is then considered LRP.
Also I disagree that interfering with the actions of MPs that threaten the life of fellow marines during hijack is LRP. [just after I removed the cuffs off of the prisoners a runner ran at us from the direction of evac pods which is where the MPs were going]
A person being fired at doesn’t think if those were “warning shots” or just another human being trying to kill them especially in a stressful situation such as hijack.
becouse of that i would like my note removed
